TED? What is “TED”? We have to admit that the name of this web resource is not very informative. However, it consists of a web page with hundreds of videos in English about very interesting topics: Technology, Entertainment, Design, Business, Science, Culture, Arts … . Moreover, the videos are speeches or lectures given by very important people: Al Gore, Sergey Brin and Larry Page (Google creators) and a very large et al.

It is not a kind of web page like “Yolango”, focused on English learning (subtitled videos, transcripts, related activities …). But the truth is that the videos are extremely interesting, it being possible to download them (in MP4 format) so we can see them through in any compatible device (in my case I use the PSP or the iPod).
